That would be the Udvar-Hazy Museum, a division of the Smithsonian Air and
Space Museum. It is located near Dulles Airport. If you are in or near
Washington D.C. drive out Rt. 66, heading west. After you pass Vienna and
Fairfax you will see signs directing you to the museum. It is about 30
minutes out of D.C. and well worth the trip. The Udvar-Hazy museum contains
many of the aircraft that are too large to put in the Air and Space Museum
on the Mall. Most of the interesting planes, at least from a photographic
point of view are there. That's where I photographed the spinners and nose
cones that I posted a while back. There is a small fee for parking but
admission is free. Wear comfortable shoes. The museum is VERY large.

No, she is on display at one of the Smithsonian sites at Dulles, near

Washington, DC.  Thanks for looking.
